Bespoke to You

We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. You will get a complete roadmap of your accent and your coach will tailor the course around you – measuring success on your terms – so you can be a consistently confident with the English language.

Proven Method

Our trademarked method and tools are simple, yet the results are profound. Learning with us is fun and accessible, and the tools we equip you with last a lifetime.

A Touch of Magic

We have worked hard to make sure your learning experience with us is touched by magic, from the brilliance of your LSW coach through to the powerful metaphors in the method, to the support from the head office team.

See For Yourself

In each session we film and voice record so you can see and hear your progress for yourself. This puts you in the driving seat. It’s not about us telling you what is good, you get to see for yourself the profound effects of the tools.

"I purchased 15 sessions for Accent Softening and have definitely noticed a significant improvement. I now have a heightened awareness of nuances in my speech."

Do I need Accent Softening?
v

If you are a non-native speaker then please know that you don’t have to compromise your identity to have true ownership over the language, the aim is not to become accent free, the aim is to show through the way you speak that you know how to operate and utilise the language like a pro. Our clients find that working with us on Accent Softening helps them speak in a way that boosts their confidence by reducing mistakes and misunderstandings – we want you to get all your amazing ideas out there as clearly as possible.

What is an Accent Softening Taster?
v

In this 60-minute session, your coach will give you the full rundown of every single sound of neutral spoken English and where you currently are in relation to that sound. You’ll also learn our really powerful Engagement Technique, which will transform your clarity and ability to engage using some very simple steps – the results from just using this tool are amazing! From there, your chosen coach will recommend a personalised 5, 10 or 15 session course plan for you depending on your goals – we want to make the course work for you and not the other way around! (Note, some of our course packages come with a discounted taster session in the price).

Book a Taster Session

How quickly will I see an improvement?
v

Most clients notice an immediate improvement after the Taster Session, where you’ll record a before-and-after to see the changes. Your communication journey with LSW involves four learning stages:

  1. Unconscious incompetence
  2. Conscious incompetence
  3. Conscious competence
  4. Unconscious competence

By the end of your course, aim for conscious competence, where you can use new skills with focus. Eventually, these skills become second nature, like driving. After mastering one aspect, you can tackle other communication skills, such as handling spontaneous questions. Your journey continues beyond the course, with access to discounted sessions as part of the LSW family.

Marketing Director Role at London Speech Workshop 

Marketing Director, London Speech Workshop 

London (Hybrid) | £50–75k + bonus

About Us

London Speech Workshop is a values-led communication coaching company helping people speak with confidence, authenticity, and impact. Through our Serlin Method™, we blend psychology and performance to create powerful, human transformation, for individuals and organisations alike.

We work with SMEs, charities, and household names including Unilever, Chanel, John Lewis, and the Bank of England. We’re in an exciting growth phase across B2B, B2C, and digital, and marketing is central to this next chapter.

We have a lateral working structure, a warm and dynamic team, and a simple ethos: our people should feel valued and know they’re delivering real value in the world. We look for good eggs with talent and grit.

The Role

This is not a purely strategic role. You’ll be deep in the detail; building funnels, shaping messaging, testing ideas, and driving performance, while leading a Marketing Manager and managing freelancers, agencies, and partners.

One morning you’re sketching a landing page wireframe. That afternoon you’re coaching your manager or reviewing PPC performance. You’re as comfortable in the data as you are in a creative brief.

What You’ll Own

Growth & Funnel Performance

  • Own the full funnel: awareness → lead → nurture → conversion
  • Build and optimise landing pages, journeys, and conversion flows
  • Run continuous testing (CRO, A/B, messaging) to improve performance

Paid & Performance Marketing

  • Own strategy and results across PPC (Google, Meta, LinkedIn, YouTube)
  • Manage agencies and freelancers — setting direction and pushing for better ROI
  • Allocate budget based on data, not instinct

Campaigns, Content & Execution

  • Plan and deliver campaigns across email, organic, paid, and partnerships
  • Shape high-converting landing pages, lead magnets, and email sequences
  • Ensure all content is on-brand: intelligent, warm, human, and impactful

Data, Team & Systems

  • Be obsessed with metrics: conversion, CAC, LTV, engagement
  • Own HubSpot (or similar): automation, segmentation, reporting
  • Manage and develop a Marketing Manager; brief and oversee designers and developers

Who You Are

  • 6–10+ years in growth and performance marketing
  • Have owned PPC and know what “good” looks like
  • Have built funnels and campaigns yourself — not just directed them
  • Confident with HubSpot, Figma/Canva, and analytics platforms
  • Strong copy instincts and an eye for conversion
  • Commercially sharp, driven by results not vanity metrics
  • Genuinely curious about people, behaviour, and what makes communication work

Salary & Benefits

  • £50,000–£75,000 DOE + performance bonus
  • Hybrid (2 days/week in our London office)
  • Learning budget + access to our training
  • A fast-moving, ideas-friendly team that lives what it teaches

How to Apply

  • Send your CV, a short cover note, and a max 2-minute video or voice note to Emma at careers@londonspeechworkshop.com
  • In the video, tell us: what excites you about this role, a marketing project you’re proud of, and your salary expectations.
